Alprostadil

What is Alprostadil

Alprostadil is a medication used to treat impotence (erectile dysfunction) in men and is also
intended to identify the possible causes of this disorder. Alprostadil acts by relaxing blood
vessels in the muscle walls of the penis, increasing the blood flow to the penile area and therefore
inducing an erection.

Alprostadil, like its contemporaries Edex, Muse and Caverjet, is an impotence agent and vasodilator
known as prostaglandin E1. Alprostadil is usually used by men when the blood vessels, nerves and
muscles in the penis do not work properly.
